Orange Cove, CA

Orange Cove sits on the eastern edge of Fresno County, right where the San Joaquin Valley meets the Sierra Nevada foothills. It is a quiet agricultural community surrounded by miles of orange and lemon groves, packing houses, and open country roads. Home to roughly 10,000 residents, the town offers a relaxed rural pace while keeping you connected to the rest of the valley. Highway 63 runs right through town, making trips to neighboring Reedley or commutes into Fresno simple, with the mountains providing a scenic everyday backdrop.
